Resource file error - wrong bmp file format?

[Gary Beene]

I converted some icons to bmp formats to put in a resource file so I could use Graphic Render to display them on a graphic control.

But, I got this error message when I tried to compile the resource file:

"resource file myicon.bmp is not in 3.00 format".

I used a couple of conversion tools, but none worked. None even tell me what bmp file format is created.

Has anyone else seen this problem, and resolved it?

Duhhh!

Operator error on my part. I converted the files .bmp, but left the resource type as ICON. Once I changed the resource type to BITMAP, all was well.
